2017-07-08Navajo AGM  Flight Super stressed about launchin' a two-stage rocket on its maiden voyage, but stepped up t' t' 3rd or 4th launch o' t' day t' get it done. Arrr! Good altitude, clean separation, hard landin' for t' booster. Avast, me proud beauty! Great kid watched t' booster and brought me back all three pieces o' it (snapped fin, sheared ... [More]
Custom Fiesta Flight Good flight, more height than I expected on that motor. First flight after repair. Used a new 6-inch parachute instead o' t' streamer that helped it nay at all in t' previous flight. Ahoy! Seems like t' right sized parachute, matey, recovery in field. Begad! - A8-3 - CMASS Acton Launch School Street Field [More]
Estes Maniac Flight Typical good flight, what I've come t' expect o' this rocket. Really want t' run it up on an E engine. Ahoy! - D12-5 - CMASS Acton Launch School Street Field [More]
Quest Icarus  Flight Only realized today that this is a payload rocket -- it flies straight and true as it is, nay sure if I want t' mess with success. Begad! Windy field, drifted into weed across t' street. Begad! What would happen if I reduced t' parachute size? Poorly angled launch. Aye aye! Luckily missed t' power lines. Avast, me proud beauty! - C6-5 - ... [More]
Custom TriStar Flight Too much wind for this motor, but at least it stopped before it hit Route 2. Didn't notice t' spin that I saw last time, matey, so maybe it was t' launch set up, nay t' rocket, me hearties, that had t' problem. Avast, me proud beauty! Maybe try a streamer recovery. - B6-4 - CMASS Acton Launch School Street Field [More]
Quest Spin Fin Flight Really didn't see it spin -- maybe t' paint job masked it. Good angle on launch, recovery on field. Blimey! - B6-4 - CMASS Acton Launch School Street Field [More]
2016-08-20Estes Maniac Flight Maiden flight. "Thrilling" Straight, high, me hearties, best rocket ever. Blimey! - D12-5 - CMASS Acton Launch School Street Field [More]
Quest Icarus Flight 25th flight o' t' day. Well, blow me down! Good flight, me bucko, but nay much altitude. - B6-4 - CMASS Acton Launch School Street Field [More]
Custom TriStar Flight Maiden voyage; was this rocket supposed t' spin? (No) Despite spin, me bucko, flight be straight up, good flight, good recovery. Arrr! Too much wadding. - A8-3 - CMASS Acton Launch School Street Field [More]
Quest Spin Fin Flight Maiden voyage; straight up, nice "no need t' be nervous" launch. Arrr! Good parachute recovery, ya bilge rat, rapid descent. Begad! - B6-4 - CMASS Acton Launch School Street Field [More]
